New Wheels?

Hi everyone! I’m gonna hafta make this a bit speedy tonight because it’s already 8:30 and I gotta watch SYTYCD at 9! I was feeling like some PB, banana and honey in my oats today so I made a grown up version!

• 1 cup water
• 1/3 cup oat bran
• banana
• cinnamon
• cinnamon honey
• almond butter

I finally broke into my jar of TJ’s raw almond butter from Julie and it really made the bowl!

I’ll have to use this sparingly so I don’t run out too quick!

My before gym snack was one of these Newton fruit crisps…

With the last of the cherries;

The “cookies” come in packs of 2 so I saved the second one for after lunch.

I woke up with a stiff neck this morning….don’tcha HATE that? So I decided that half and hour on the elliptical would help loosen me up without making things worse.

I thought I would spend the remainder of my lunch at home with the fam, but there was a major bad accident at the intersection by work and my normal 2 minute drive turned into almost 10! YIKES! By the time I got to the homestead, I had to turn around and come back. It would appear that a car turned left in front of a motorcycle and the 2 on the bike were thrown. One of them was airlifted to hospital. The chopper actually set down right on the road where normally the victim would be transported to the hospital first, then get transferred. Not good.

You’ll be surprised…and most likely relieved …..to know that I didn’t have a salad at lunch today! I was feeling quite lazy last night and just grabbed a Lean Cuisine Panini to go!

I ate it open faced so it was easier to hold while I keypunched at my desk..

I really do enjoy these for a quick meal! Later on I ate some juicy cantaloupe chunks;

When I got home there was a note on the table that the fam was at the neighbours for a swim. I met them there and we chatted for a few hours. By the time we made it home, we were all pretty hungry and didn’t have any time to cook because we had a 7pm appointment. Subway to the rescue!

I went with a 6” turkey, ham & Swiss on WW with cukes, lettuce, tomato, green pepper, black olives, hot peppers and sweet onion sauce.

As for our appointment…we’ve come to the conclusion that our van has reached the end of the line. It’s getting quite rusty and the gas gauge is being real picky lately. Time to go visit our trusty car dealer. Here’s what I’m 95% sure we are going to buy…

You like??? It’s a jeep Liberty. We don’t really need anything as big as a van and I’m not into large SUV’s. This fits right in between! If anybody has any experience with this model…good or bad….do tell!

After we left the lot we stopped off for ice cream. I ordered a frozen yogurt and was shocked at how BIG it was!!!

That was a good 2 cups right there and I Ate. It. All!!! My 2 fruit choices were banana & pineapple. So, so good, but for the price of it…$6.00…I won’t be back often! I can hit up a Yogen Fruz for a lot cheaper.

Well, I’ve come to the end with 6 minutes to spare. Time enough to get in my jammies, put the kettle on for tea and crash on the couch. Tomorrow is my off day and you better believe I’m looking forward to it!

Bye for now!!
